Discussed in this episode: Romance Get a Life, Chloe Brown by Talia Hibbert I love this one on audio, thanks to the incredible voice work of Adjoa Andoh (voice actor for series) A Rogue by Any Other Name by Sarah MacLean (I mistakenly called this “A Scandal by Any Other Name” in the podcast; forgive my error.
